Climate Ireland Adaptation Strategy Explorer

Climate Ireland provides information, advice, and support to adaptation specialists and practitioners to help Ireland adapt to a changing climate. The website provides information and guidance on adaptation planning and risk assessment, as well as information on Ireland’s future climate, to support adaptation practitioners in their work. The Data Explorer section provides national-scale, downscaled, bias-corrected climate projections for a range of climate hazards.

Combines Ireland-specific climate projections with practical guidance on risk assessment and adaptation planning, helping practitioners move from understanding future climate conditions to developing and reviewing adaptation responses. Its standardised, bias-corrected datasets provide a common national evidence base, while the wider site connects data with planning guidance and official plans. The platform is designed mainly for adaptation practitioners, so some material may be technical for users without prior experience.
